  • APARTMENTS or STUDENT DORMITORYS (Italy and London Semester): You are housed with other Americans in one apartment with several 2-person bedrooms or a flat. The apartments and flats usually have a kitchen and bathroom that is shared. This option will cost more.

CSUF Tuition & Course Registration

You are enrolling in a special program and your registration needs special handling. DO NOT REGISTER ON LINE for the courses you choose for study abroad. This will be done for you. REMEMBER that your tuition is NOT included in the program fee. Courses offered vary with each program – see specific program for course selection.

In addition to CSUF, our study abroad programs also include courses offered by faculty from CSULB. Courses taken from CSULB faculty will require a concurrent enrollment form and will show on your Fullerton transcript as UNITS TRANSFERRED. If you need to obtain a transcript of the course taken from CSULB, you will need to request that from CSULB at a nominal fee.


Passports & Visa Requirements

You must have a valid U.S. passport for the duration of the program. U.S. passport applications can be obtained at any major post office. http://www.usps.com/passport/welcome.htm

If you have a passport from a country other than the United States, you will need to contact the consulate of the country of your destination to ask about your specific Visa requirements.

You should register with the U.S. Embassy before embark on your study abroad program: https://travelregistration.state.gov/ibrs

*See London program for special visa requirements*


Airfare

Roundtrip airfare is sepaate from the program fee. The GROUP flight reservation form is included with the program application. You are welcome to find your own (and sometimes) cheaper airfare, if you choose. However, we advise you to be sure and coordinate your flight arrival with the GROUP flight arrival so that you can be picked up by the program coordinators and transferred to lodging or study center with the group. Check the program site for cost of group flight.
